Smart campaign performance fluctuations: Changes to account or campaign settings

Editing any account or campaign settings, such as budget, keyword themes, search terms, ad text, landing page, location targeting, and ad scheduling can change your performance.

Since Smart campaigns use automation, it takes about 2 weeks for performance to stabilize as the campaign starts serving. Any changes to your campaign settings can also impact your campaign’s performance while it adapts and optimizes towards these new settings.
